Inspired by a few friends (shout out to Craig, Kelvin, and Travis) and finally in possession of a cell phone that takes high-quality videos, I set out to make a video containing one second from every day in 2017. You may have heard of the one second video concept before - the idea was featured in a Ted Talk in 2012 and shortly thereafter an app called One Second Everyday was released that allows users to mash up videos chronologically. I passed on using the app and elected to do the editing on my own, which was, in hindsight, the right decision for me. The editing process was a fun way to take a step back every several weeks to reflect on those weeks through video.
While this was a selfish project intended to result in a personal video flip book of sorts, I wanted to share with the hope that you enjoy it and maybe decide to make your own. Without further ado, here's my one second video from 2017. I hope you enjoy, and yes, I am already working on the 2018 version.
